I Dislike Busy Restaurants.....

Soda/ice machine drains. 6" lines raised a few/several inches from the floor and sealed off with can spray insulating foam. I rodded through pic #1 and cable would come up on other side of building pic #3, rod from pic #3 and cable came up pic #1.

Even went outside & checked the grease trap which looked good.

All other drains were working fine even the 6" one on the top in pic #2.

Also, in pic #3 there is a 2" drain next to the 6" drain. Both are taking soda/ice water.

Place was super busy, they were in my way, I was in their way. Might be going back during slower hours.

The 6" line is just a conduit for the soda syrup hoses, co2 and water.

It's not a waste line. The 2" is the waste line.

OK, now I know. ThanX

I also rodded the 2" line with no results but knowing it's full of snot I just couldn't get it done with all those people in there. The 2" line is right next to the drive up window and they wouldn't shut it down.

Comment

The 2" line, if it comes from the soda drain, could be full of a jell like syrupy gook. I used to do maintenance at 7 elevens, and the slurpee and soda drains would be full of that stuff. What worked best for me was a shop vac.
